October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and it is the perfect time to celebrate Pink. For most people, pink ribbons, socks , T-shirts or bandanas that pop up along the Halloween décor will make a nice way to show their support for the cause.
The American Cancer Society estimates that around 1.8 million new cancer cases will be diagnosed by the end of 2020, which is the largest one-year drop in cancer mortality cases in the country.The stats and figures give hope to the society in general. Early detection is the key in winning the batter and that is what makes awareness so vital.
Business too can be part of this noble cause by supporting breast cancer awareness month. Apart from the awareness events, free medical camps ,pink ribbon handouts and health runs that you may have planned already, here are a few more ideas.
Spread Knowledge
Spread awareness about the disease to your employees, customers and clients. From health guides to informational materials on breast cancer, you have a lot of tools to help raise the awareness of breast cancer. You can even come up with a listing of cancer care clinics that offer free or low-cost mammograms for the benefit of the community.
Distribute Giveaways
Customized Breast cancer awareness items are a great way to get the message out. These handouts will make long lasting reminders for your recipients about the cause. Choose from a wide range of giveaways that range from the budget friendly pink ribbon magnetic clips to awareness bracelets, food and nutrition books, drinkware items, wellness items like yoga mats and more.
Host an awareness campaign
Virtual awareness camps, podcasts and online discussions with health experts are some of the ways to reach out to your audience in the post pandemic world of social distancing. Social media is a powerful platform to share this knowledge to your audience. Post videos, posts and healthy living tips along with hashtags for breast cancer awareness to get the word out.
Make donations
Donate for Breast Cancer Research or plan a fund raising event for the cause. It will go a long way in supporting the research studies that are being carried out in the quest for a cure for this deadly disease. Even a small support can make a big difference in reaching the goal.
Sponsor a health run or a community marathon to raise awareness and fund for the cause. You can host a fundraiser yourself or participate in an awareness event where people sponsor you or donate to your team. Throughout the entire month of October countless breast cancer awareness walks and other events are held for this purpose.
Businesses can donate a small percentage of their sales or even encourage their employees to make a small donation. You can also donate goods or services for cancer care centers or community organizations working for the cause of breast cancer awareness .
Celebrate Pink
The month of October is the best time to celebrate pink, the official color of breast cancer awareness. Wear pink to show your support throughout the month of October to leave a mark. You can also handout pink ribbons or lapel pins for your team to wear. It will highlight your social commitment and make your team stand out during business events.
Volunteer
Run a support group for the cancer survivors or volunteer to be mentors in breast cancer awareness events to do your bit in the battle against breast cancer.
